Des Moines is full of fresh artists and photographers, and from time to time, they bless us with a flash or two. Peace and praises to those craftsmen and craftswomen, whose faces remain hidden while captured images speak in their stead.

The Gist:

Composed of producer Aeon Grey, word-pusher Asphate Woodhavet, and Dj TouchNice, Maxilla Blue materialized from a bluish tinged gaseous substance somewhere between here and there in the year of 2006, engulfing minds and contorting bodies during the spontaneous formation.
The sound, native to Des Moines, IA, speaks for itself and is not to be explained, but experienced. Hailing from a land of talking rocks, posing pebbles, and psychological dirt, Maxilla Blue has been left to develop their own interpretation of hip hop and what it should be, and invites all spectators to follow suit.
